Stephen420 Valued Member United States 411 Posts	Posted 05/13/2006 01:20 am Although I am interested in your opinions on the grade, I have to admit that another reason I'm posting here is to show off my creamy new coin. So, whaddya think? Report this Post to the Staff

B12 Valued Member United States 151 Posts	Posted 05/13/2006 10:55 am I'm assuming that's not wear on the obverse.So I'd say MS62,maybe 63. Report this Post to the Staff
TLS5933 Pillar of the Community United States 1703 Posts	Posted 05/13/2006 2:33 pm Nice Peace dollar and exellent year. By your pictures The reverse looks much stronger than the obverse. wear on the hair over and right of eye will bring it down some, my guess VF20 while the reverse looks EF-40 to AU.

Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 05/13/2006 2:43 pm Sorry Guys !!! This High relief peace is known for less than a perfect strike !! especially through the central part of the coin on both Obverse and reverse,, although this coin is above average on the reverse !! My guess is MS-65 perhaps 66 with some beautiful toning !! By the way this coin was extremely well cared for,, very clean and mark free for a large coin !!!

TLS5933 Pillar of the Community United States 1703 Posts	Posted 05/13/2006 3:46 pm Rick, Are the 1921 High Reliefs always weak around the eye hairline? Just for my furture reference as I have been picking up Peace dollars also. Thanks, Terry Report this Post to the Staff
Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 05/13/2006 4:48 pm Hi Terry Almost always on the circulation coins(described by Breens as normally) ,, with the San Fransisco mint being the most notable, Denver and then Philly in order. These coins were struck up under lower than normal pressures to minimize die breakage. Rick Report this Post to the Staff

lou b New Member United States 37 Posts	Posted 05/14/2006 2:04 pm I have four 21 Peace dollars. All have at least some hair detail above the ear and my best one I sent to Anacs. This one has complete hair detail but seems to be slightly weak on the reverse. All in all I thought I had a winner. Anacs gave it a 58. I have never personally seen one with better detail. Its just another of several daggers Anacs has dealt me, but the full detail coins are out there. Report this Post to the Staff
Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 05/14/2006 2:35 pm Hi Lou It would be interesting to me anyway,, to see pics of your coin. If you would like to post a thread on it ? Im trying to absorb the grading standards for these large coins, (I usually deal with the tenth part of them )so any and all pics and info is greatly appreciated. Rick Report this Post to the Staff
regandon New Member United States 34 Posts	Posted 05/14/2006 5:38 pm Here are pics of two 1921 Peace dollars graded MS64. The one with more hair detail is about $70.00 more then the other MS64. Image: peace.jpg 56.04 KB Image: peace a.jpg 55.48 KB They should grade them as they do with the 1878 7/8 TF Morgans. With the 7/8 TF there is a weak and a strong strike variation. The price is also different. But, the Peace dollar has and still is a hard one to grade. Report this Post to the Staff

scoutjim99 Pillar of the Community United States 4589 Posts	Posted 05/15/2006 10:22 pm metal man is right, that why you need a seperate book on morgans too,because some of them are known to have week strikes, love the toning Report this Post to the Staff
Stephen420 Valued Member United States 411 Posts	Posted 05/17/2006 10:30 pm Well, the coin arrived today and it's splendid. In the vain hope that someone there has a sympathetic eye, I'm either submitting for regrading, or for crossover at NGC. Any advise? Report this Post to the Staff
